Old Dominion head men’s basketball coach Mike Jones announced a three-game series with George Mason over the next three seasons.

The Monarchs will play at George Mason on Sunday, December 13 this season. ODU will make the trip to Fairfax, Virginia again in 2026 and will then host the Patriots in 2027.

“We are so excited to include George Mason in our non-conference schedule, and to be able to have them for multiple years! A former rival from our CAA days and a consistent winner with Coach Skinn, it provides us with another tremendous challenge as we prepare for SBC play,” said Jones.

Former members of the CAA, the two programs have previously met 60 times between 1978 and 2022. The Monarchs are ahead in the all-time series, 38-22 and have won four of the last five meetings with the Patriots.

ODU hosted GMU on December 21, 2022, a close game that went to the Monarchs, 78-77.
